Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common disease in critically ill patients that has a high incidence and mortality rate worldwide. At present, there is no specific treatment for ARDS. Traditional Chinese medicine has been shown to have good potential in preventing and treating ARDS, especially in reducing the dosages of Western medicines and therefore, adverse drug reactions. The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy of integrated Chinese and Western medicine to that of Western medicine alone in the treatment of ARDS.

Evaluation of clinical efficacy of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is extensively used to treat acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Acute mesenteric ischemia is a life-threatening disease if untreated.

Acute mesenteric ischemia due to percutaneous coronary intervention: A case report.

Kounis syndrome is a hypersensitive coronary artery disease caused by the body's exposure to allergens, which is induced by various drugs and environmental factors. This entity has been described primarily in isolated case reports and case series. We report a case of type III Kounis syndrome caused by cefoperazone-sulbactam.

Case report: Cefoperazone-sulbactam induced Kounis syndrome and cardiogenic shock.

To analyze the distribution characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in plateau areas, and to provide theoretical basis for further clinical treatment of patients with COVID-19.

[Analysis of traditional Chinese medicine syndromes in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 in plateau areas].

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common life-threatening critical illness with high mortality. Fusu mixture (FSM) can improve the mechanical ventilation in ARDS patients. However, the detailed pharmacological mechanisms and active substances of FSM are still unclear. This study aimed to explore the potential pharmacological mechanisms of FSM for treating ARDS and its chemical compositions.

Fusu mixture alleviates inflammatory reactions in lipopolysaccharide-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome mice via regulation of surfactant-associated protein C, aquaporin 5, and Notch1.

The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer rank the first among all kinds of cancer. In China, anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive pulmonary tumors account for nearly 5% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and these patients are quite likely to develop brain metastases, as high as around 45%. Although anaplastic lymphoma kinase-tyrosine kinase inhibitors crizotinib and alectinib have proved effective for controlling tumor metastases to the brain, drug resistance and disease progression cannot be ignored in the course of treatment.
